About this map

The international border cuts across the northwestern corner of this territory, defining a heavily forested and remote section of the Maine North Woods. Much of the landscape is shaped by the complex drainage systems of the Big Black River and its various tributaries. The Little Saint Roch River and Shields Branch wind through the hills, creating wetland pockets and feeding into the larger river system.

Logging and resource management appear as the primary human activities, indicated by the network of unpaved access routes such as Blanchette Rd and Depot Rd. Small, isolated water bodies like Charles Pond and Bruleau Pond are tucked into the interior, away from the primary river channels. The presence of Hideaway Rd suggests the occasional remote camp or hunting site, though the terrain remains largely dominated by the natural hydrology of Saint John’s Brook.
